Snoring Treatment

 
 What Is Snoring?

The raspy or loud sound that results when air passes through relaxed throat tissues and causes the tissues to vibrate with each breath is known as snoring. Most individuals snore occasionally, but for some, it can be a persistent issue. It might also be a sign of a serious medical issue and may require snoring treatment, contact us if you suffer from snoring in Melbourne.

Snoring Causes

 

  • Nasal airways are blocked. 
  • Allergies or a sinus infection. 
  • The airways can also become blocked by issues with your nose, such as nasal polyps or a deviated septum 
  • Your tongue and throat have a poor muscular tone.
  • Too much relaxation in the muscles of the throat and tongue might cause them to collapse into your airway.
  • Thick throat tissue 

  • Obesity may contribute to this.
  • Uvula or a long, soft palate.
  • The space between your nose and neck may become smaller if you have a long soft palate or uvula 
  • Use of drugs and alcohol. Your tongue and throat muscles may become overly relaxed as a result of alcohol use or the use of muscle relaxants.
  • Sleeping on your back. 
  • Absence of sleep.
 
 

Snoring Diagnosis

In order to check for conditions that could obstruct your airways, such as persistent nasal congestion brought on by rhinitis or sinusitis, a deviated septum, or swollen tonsils, your snoring doctor specialist will also inquire about your medical history and perform a physical examination before they can recommend snoring treatment:

  •  Your airways can be examined with a CT scan, MRI, or X-ray.
  • A test called polysomnography may require you to spend the night in a lab or have a machine track your sleep while you are at home.
